Remarkable Surgery,

The science of surgery has made such won
derful progress in modern times, that the
most intricate and delicate operations are
now undertaken and carried to a successful
issue. There are now several well authenti-
Gated cases of what is known as pneumotony,
tn at is to say, the removal of diseased por-
tons of lungs in cases of consumption.
While, however, this delicate operation has
sometimes been successfully performed, the
risks attending 1t are so great, and the chances
of recovery so slight, that it is seldom resort
ed to. The safest plan in consumptive cases
is to use DR.. Pierces Golden Medical DiscOv-
cry. This will always cure the disease in its
earlier stages thoroughly arresting the raw
ages of the terrible maady, by removing its
cause and healing the lungs.

Chicago,s Big Blaze,

CHICAGO. June 27.-If Americans
had never discovered the luxury of
roast pig, they would surely have
found it out sunday. The Chicago
packing and provision company's
works occupied about six acres Oh
Center avenue and Fortieth street,
and in the buildings were thousands
of barrels of pork and 5000 live hogs
Early sunday morning the buildings
were discovered in flames, and for IA
hours the iremen fought bravely be
fore they extinguished the fire. The
fact that no wind was blowing proba
bly, saved the entire stock yards from
destruction, as the flames made most
rapid LIE eadway. Twenty engines pour
ed vast volumes of water in the blaz
ing main building and fertilizing fac
rory, and succeeded in confining the
fire to those buildings. Hundreds of
stock yard employees. under the direc-
ton of p. d. Armour, rolled out bar
rels of pork or carried out huge sides
of slaughtered pigs. But when the
frightened live animals in the upper
stories began to leap from windows
and rush down stairways, the men
had to give up their work and leave
juicy sides of bacon to be burned to a
crisp. Several firemen were injured
by falling walls. and Thomas Murphy
was killed. A large portion of the
stock destroyed belonged to parties
who had stored it there. The curing
room, with IS, 600, 900 pounds of short
ribs, was saved. About l 900 men will
be thrown out of employment. The
total loss is estimated ut ST. ,250, 900.

Laid on the Table.

There was one part of the report of
the proceedings of the Army of the
Potomac meeting at Saratoga on Wed
nesday which seems to have escaped
the notice of the Leader and the other
rabid Republican papers that have
been chewing soap and frOthing at the
mouth over the rebel flag matter. Ac.
cording to the associated press account
of the proceedings u number of resolu
tions in regard to the return of the
rebel flags were offered but they were
all laid on the table. The veterans
who had done the real fighting and
assisted in capturing the rebel flags
refused to work themselves into pas
sien over the question whether the
flags should remain where they now
are or be returned as evidences that
the Union is actually restored and
there are no more rebels, but all are
alike loyal citizens of the UnitedS ates
and true to the one flag of the country,
the glorious stars and stripes. Those
grizzled veterans estimated at its true
value the flaming patriotism of the
political "old soldiers" who are work
ing the" flag racket" in the hope il
will help them into office, and who
are willing to rouse the passions OF
strife and sectional animOsities fol
selfish partisan purposes. They refused
to be made the tools of these unscru
puleus men and promptly laid the
whole flag business on the table.
The country is in accord with the
action of the army of the Potomac in
this matter and IL anxious that the
flag affair should be laid on the
table" If the political warriors
will not take the hint and stop theil
bowling they will find themselves
laid on the shelf"-[ Plain Dealer
The Democratic press. [volume] (Ravenna, O. [Ohio]) 1868-1901, 1887-06-30
FIapdoodle About Flags.

WASHINGTON, June l7.-"This flag
business" says member of the Grand
Army, :" is all piece of sentimental
fapdoodleism and vapor gush that
cannot be of any good except to fire
the Republican heart. The fact is the
g. o. p. is in nervous spasm of an
guish because of the gradual dying
out of. all war feeling and inability to
realize on its stock in trade which has
SO fearfully deprec ated since we have
had Democratic Administration and
is driving the cheap john statesmen of
that party into bankruptcy. suspect
the whole thing was Matched in tn
brains of the Republican clerks of the
War Department., who really suggest
ed the matter under the pretense of
Cancellation, and set the trap to catch
somebody, and that they are now
laughing at their cuteness. I do not
know this, but that is my guess. /
should say that while the thing is i'm.
material in all respects, yet it would
be an unwise step to take, because it
cannot do the South any good, and it
only gives the Republican howlers a
chance to scream and alarm some peo-
pie, and thereby aid the Republican
party in obscuring the live issues of
